Think about your values that you want it to have and the motto. Also make sure that the name you want isn't being used and/or copyrighted by an existing organization.

You may want to try and find someone who speaks Greek and/or Latin to help you if you want to translate anything.

However you want. It just has be meaningful to you. You can choose a set of words that are important to you, or a phrase, in any language, and adopt Greek Letters.

Most GLO's stick to 2-3 letters for their names. Kappa Sigma, Alpha Delta Pi, Delta Gamma, Pi Kappa Phi, etc...

For example:

Girls Rule: Gamma Rho
Out to Lunch: Omega Tau Lambda
Birds of a Feather: Beta Phi
Ex uno disce omnes: Eta Delta Omicron
Acta non verba: Alpha Nu
